Healthcare

Clinics and multi-site health organizations run on an EHR, a billing system and a scheduling tool that rarely share a clean view. We unify them in a secured warehouse with dashboards for operations and revenue, designed around health privacy rules from the first day.

Financial services & insurance

The data problem. Lenders, wealth managers, insurers and brokers often run a core or policy system, a separate claims or servicing tool, a CRM and a general ledger, with month-end reporting stitched together in spreadsheets. Regulators and auditors want to know where every number came from.

What we build:
– a governed warehouse combining policy, claims, customer and GL data, with history so you can report “as at” any date;
– finance and risk dashboards: loss ratio, claims cycle time, delinquency, AUM and flows, product profitability;
– predictive models for lapse, late payment and anomaly flags, routed to a person for review;
– data lineage and audit trails, so each reported figure can be traced to source;
– encryption and key management for account, policy and identity data.

Rules we design around. Financial privacy and security expectations such as GLBA in the US, PIPEDA in Canada, and the Privacy Act 1988 and APRA CPS 234 for regulated entities in Australia. We implement the data controls and help you document them; we don’t certify compliance. See data security and encryption.

Common use cases: single source of truth for finance · automated reporting

Retail & ecommerce

Brands and retailers selling across Shopify, stores, marketplaces and wholesale need one view of orders, margin, inventory and customers. We connect storefront, POS, ad, 3PL and accounting data so contribution margin and stock cover are visible daily.

Manufacturing, logistics & supply chain

Manufacturers and logistics operators run ERP, MES, WMS, TMS and sensor data in separate worlds. We bring them together to track OEE, downtime, inventory, cost per unit and on-time delivery in one place, and to forecast demand.

SaaS & technology

The data problem. Software companies have more data than most and still argue about MRR. Product usage sits in an analytics tool or the app database, subscriptions in Stripe or a billing platform, pipeline in the CRM and tickets in a support desk. Board metrics get rebuilt by hand every quarter.

What we build:
– a warehouse joining product events, subscriptions, CRM and support data at the account level;
– one agreed definition each for MRR, ARR, net revenue retention, gross churn and expansion, in a semantic layer;
– customer 360 views: usage, revenue, health and open tickets per account;
– churn and expansion models, with scores written back to the CRM through reverse ETL;
– data-layer controls (encryption, access, logging) that support SOC 2 readiness.

Rules we design around. Customer data processing agreements, data residency commitments to customers, and SOC 2 expectations. See data security.

Professional services

The data problem. Consulting, accounting, legal, engineering and agency firms sell time and expertise. Time sits in a tracking tool or PSA, invoices in accounting, pipeline in the CRM and staffing plans in spreadsheets. Utilization and project margin are often a month late and argued over.

What we build:
– a warehouse joining time, billing, project, CRM and HR data;
– firm, practice and individual dashboards for utilization, realization, WIP, project margin and pipeline coverage;
– automated reporting to replace the weekly utilization spreadsheet;
– application integrations so won deals create projects and invoices without re-keying;
– row-level security so partners, practice leads and staff see the right slice.

Rules we design around. Client confidentiality and engagement terms: client names and matter data visible only to the people who need them, with access logged.

Real estate

Owners, operators and property managers run leasing, property management, accounting and building systems that rarely line up. We connect them for live occupancy, rent collection, NOI and asset performance dashboards.
